【导语】这是一篇应用文。本文介绍了加拿大红印学徒贷款的核心信息，该贷款由加拿大政府推出，为注册红印行业学徒的技术培训提供资金支持，明确了贷款额度、免息期限、还款规则，并详细列出了申请该贷款的必备资格和无资格情形。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据Eligibility (资格)中“●be a Canadian Citizen, Permanent Resident, or Protected Person; ●be registered in a Red Seal Trade apprenticeship program that is designated by the province or territory where you are registered as an apprentice;●be enrolled in block release technical training or the equivalent fulltime technical training with an approved technical training provider;( ●是加拿大公民、永久居民或受保护人员；●在您注册为学徒的省份或地区指定的红印行业学徒培训项目中注册；●参加分段脱产技术培训或与经批准的技术培训提供商签订的同等全日制技术培训；)”可知，申请该贷款要求必须在经认可的技术培训机构参加全日制相关培训，而 D 项中申请者只是“寻找经认可的培训机构”，尚未满足该核心条件，因此无资格申请。故选D项。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据You are not eligible if you:中“●are a high school student;( ●是高中生)”可知，无资格情形明确标注高中生无法申请，B 项“高中毕业前可获得贷款”与原文完全相悖，为错误表述。故选B项。
【42题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章标题“Canada Apprentice (学徒) Loan Basics(加拿大学徒贷款基础信息)”以及首段“The Canada Apprentice Loan is available to help registered Red Seal apprentices cover the cost of their training.(“加拿大学徒贷款”项目旨在帮助已注册的红印学徒支付其培训费用。)”可知，文章开篇即点明核心目的 —— 为注册红印学徒提供贷款，补贴其技术培训的费用，后文均围绕贷款额度、免息规则、申请资格等基础信息展开，由此可知，这篇文章的目的是“为学徒提供资金以接受技术培训”。故选D项。
C
The woods are turning orange. Drifts of dry leaves are growing on forest floors and flying into street corners. From a distance, it is beautiful. But the air is still warm and summery. This turning and leaf fall is not the usual gradual preparation for winter in temperate zones(温带) but a stress response by trees trying to preserve water. We are now in a false autumn, caused by heat and drought. And it feels wrong.
There is, therefore, something deeply disturbing about such a graphic alteration of familiar rhythms, Droughts are not unknown to the UK, of course, and too many parts of the world are certainly familiar with far more severe versions. But increasingly they are occurring in the context of a climate emergency, and record-breaking heat. And the beauty of a false autumn, specifically, has an emotional effect, a deep weirdness, something mysteriously suggestive of evil or danger
Cultures across the world contain ceremonies for the propitiation(宽恕) of the weather; a sense of responsibility for the natural world—and the belief that it will punish us if we fail it—is as old as humanity. One of the reasons why the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is so effective is the directness with which it links the shooting of an albatross(信天翁)—the destruction of innocent wildlife—to a terrible change in the weather: no rain, just burning, death-dealing sun. We may not understand the mechanism, but at an instinctual(本能的) level it feels right.
And in a similar way it has not really been a surprise to hear that birds are struggling. In London, young swifts (雨燕) were seen falling out of the sky. Fewer—and too early—nuts and berries mean some animals will not live through this winter. Older trees, with their longer roots, will hopefully survive, but young trees may not—all that promises further warming. There will always be a degree of uncertainty about the causes of specific weather events, but we cannot deny that we have not taken care of the albatross. Now we must hope we are doing enough to make sure that these fearful golden days are pot an autumn of autumns.
43. According to the passage, what is a disturbing sign of “a false autumn”?
A. Tree leaves are turning orange and fall gradually in winter.
B. Birds are struggling to fall out of the sky in London.
C. People worldwide are careless of droughts and heat in the UK.
D. Nuts and berries-ripen earlier but yield less than before.
44. Why is Coleridge’s 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner so effective?
A. Because people across the world sympathize with the albatross.
B. Because it directly links destruction of wildlife to extreme weather.
C. Because we are certain about how the weather shifts instinctually.
D. Because he is an established Romantic poet curious about nature.
45. Which of the following is implied by the underlined sentence (Line 6, Paragraph 4)?
A. This autumn must be seen as a warning to take instant action.
B. Plants and animals are bound to survive in spite of their fear.
C. The writer appreciates and looks forward to such golden days.
D. Abundant environmental protection has already been ensured.
46. What is the overall tone of the passage?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned. C. Humorous. D. Ironic.
【答案】43. A 44. B 45. A 46. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了气候变暖导致秋天变成了“虚假秋天“，呼吁人们将这种现象视为警告，采取措施阻止全球变暖现象进一步恶化。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The woods are turning orange. Drifts of dry leaves are growing on forest floors and flying into street corners. From a distance, it is beautiful. But the air is still warm and summery. This turning and leaf fall is not the usual gradual preparation for winter in temperate zones(温带) but a stress response by trees trying to preserve water.(树林正在变成橙色。一堆堆干树叶生长在森林的地面上，飞到街道的角落。从远处看，它是美丽的。但是空气仍然是温暖和夏天。在温带地区，这种转变和落叶并不是通常的渐进过冬准备，而是树木试图保存水分的应激反应。)”可知，本来秋天树叶变黄落下。现在冬天树叶变黄落下，人们误把冬天当秋天，就是虚假秋天。“虚假秋天”的令人不安的迹象是树叶在冬天逐渐变成橙色并逐渐落下。故选A。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One of the reasons why the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is so effective is the directness with which it links the shooting of an albatross(信天翁)—the destruction of innocent wildlife—to a terrible change in the weather: no rain, just burning, death-dealing sun.( 浪漫主义诗人塞缪尔·泰勒·柯勒律治(Samuel Taylor Coleridge) 1798年的诗歌《古水手之歌》如此有效果，原因之一是它直接将射杀信天翁——对无辜野生动物的毁灭——与可怕的天气变化联系起来:没有下雨，只有灼热的、令人死亡的太阳。)”可知，柯勒律治1798年的诗歌《古水手之歌》如此有效是因为它将野生动物的毁灭与极端天气直接联系起来。故选B。
【45题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“Now we must hope we are doing enough to make sure that these fearful golden days are pot an autumn of autumns.(现在，我们必须希望我们正在做的足够多，以确保这些可怕的黄金日子成为一个真正秋天中的秋天。)”可推知，划线的句子暗示我们今年秋天必须被视为一个警告，要立即采取行动阻止气候变暖进一步恶化。故选A。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“We are now in a false autumn, caused by heat and drought. And it feels wrong.(我们现在正处在一个由炎热和干旱造成的假秋天。这感觉不对。)”，文章第二段“There is, therefore, something deeply disturbing about such a graphic alteration of familiar rhythms.( 因此，这种对熟悉节奏的形象改变令人深感不安。)”、文章第三段“Cultures across the world contain ceremonies for the propitiation of the weather; a sense of responsibility for the natural world—and the belief that it will punish us if we fail it—is as old as humanity.( 世界各地的文化都有庆祝天气平息的仪式;对自然世界的责任感——相信如果我们辜负了自然世界，自然世界就会惩罚我们——和人类一样古老。)”和文章最后一段“Now we must hope we are doing enough to make sure that these fearful golden days are pot an autumn of autumns.(现在，我们必须希望我们正在做的足够多，以确保这些可怕的黄金日子成为一个真正秋天中的秋天。)”可知，文章讲述了气候变暖导致秋天变成了“假秋天”，呼吁人们将这种现象视为警告，采取措施阻止全球变暖进一步恶化。由此可推知，作者写这篇文章的整体基调是担心的。故选B。

The woods are turning orange. Drifts of dry leaves are growing on forest floors and flying into street corners. From a distance, it is beautiful. But the air is still warm and summery. This turning and leaf fall is not the usual gradual preparation for winter in temperate zones(温带) but a stress response by trees trying to preserve water. We are now in a false autumn, caused by heat and drought. And it feels wrong.
There is, therefore, something deeply disturbing about such a graphic alteration of familiar rhythms, Droughts are not unknown to the UK, of course, and too many parts of the world are certainly familiar with far more severe versions. But increasingly they are occurring in the context of a climate emergency, and record-breaking heat. And the beauty of a false autumn, specifically, has an emotional effect, a deep weirdness, something mysteriously suggestive of evil or danger
Cultures across the world contain ceremonies for the propitiation(宽恕) of the weather; a sense of responsibility for the natural world—and the belief that it will punish us if we fail it—is as old as humanity. One of the reasons why the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is so effective is the directness with which it links the shooting of an albatross(信天翁)—the destruction of innocent wildlife—to a terrible change in the weather: no rain, just burning, death-dealing sun. We may not understand the mechanism, but at an instinctual(本能的) level it feels right.
And in a similar way it has not really been a surprise to hear that birds are struggling. In London, young swifts (雨燕) were seen falling out of the sky. Fewer—and too early—nuts and berries mean some animals will not live through this winter. Older trees, with their longer roots, will hopefully survive, but young trees may not—all that promises further warming. There will always be a degree of uncertainty about the causes of specific weather events, but we cannot deny that we have not taken care of the albatross. Now we must hope we are doing enough to make sure that these fearful golden days are pot an autumn of autumns.

A. Tree leaves are turning orange and fall gradually in winter.
B. Birds are struggling to fall out of the sky in London.
C. People worldwide are careless of droughts and heat in the UK.
D. Nuts and berries-ripen earlier but yield less than before.
44. Why is Coleridge’s 1798 poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner so effective?
A. Because people across the world sympathize with the albatross.
B. Because it directly links destruction of wildlife to extreme weather.
C. Because we are certain about how the weather shifts instinctually.
D. Because he is an established Romantic poet curious about nature.
